Hello @Kidv97 

Please test with the following flow. I have a successful flow with this.

1. After parsing the form file, use the first function in the composition action to output only the name value.
   
   
   first(body('Parse_JSON')).name
   
   
2. Next, manually enter a path other than the file name in the [Get File Metadata by Path] path, and add the Compose-first output (name value) for the file name only.
3. Then add the output (ID) of Get File Metadata by Path to the file in the Get File Content action.

 I used google translate.
Regards,
